Happiness is your Creation Author: Swami Ramana Editor/Commentator: Padit Rajmani Tigunait Publisher: Himalayan Institute Press ISBN: 978-0-89389-246-3 Format: Paperback Pages: 124 List Price: £10.00 |
Synopsis:
Editorial Reviews Product Description "You are a creation of God, but happiness is your creation. You are equipped with everything that you need to live a happy life. Your only job is to discover the source of happiness within and infuse your surroundings with that inner happiness."-Swami Rama. In this collection of inspirational teachings, Pandit Tigunait gathered passages on the causes of unhappiness and the way to stay centered and joyful in everyday life. This is a work of elegance, articulation, and intellectual insight. Yet, its words ring true with wisdom and authenticity, speaking directly to our hearts. From the Publisher If you look at human civilization, you will find that technology has made great progress, but human beings have not progressed at all. In terms of inner development, we are standing at the same place where our forefathers stood in the Stone Age. The only progress that has been made is that in the olden days, people used to fight with sticks and pebbles. Today, we fight with machine guns and nuclear weapons. We have learned how to harness atomic energy, but we have not yet learned how to manage our own senses and minds so that we can give the right direction to the energy that we gather in the external world. No matter how many international societies we form, and no matter how many peace summits we hold, unless we unveil the mysteries of the mind, we will continue using external forces to create misery for ourselves.

Editorial Reviews Product Description Is asana merely physical exercise? Is pranayama just for curing diseases? Is meditation all about stress management? Though the author practiced yoga for many years with renowned contemporary teachers, his desire for spiritual awareness was never addressed - until an old ascetic perceived the urgency of his quest and took him to the remote caves of the Himalayas. His study of the Yoga Sutras in the light of quantum physics led to his discovery of the stunning realities beneath the superficial yoga practice of today. Buy from Amazon US Buy from Amazon UK |

Teaching of Yoga Author: Editor/Commentator: Georg Feuerstein Publisher: Shambhala ISBN: 157062318X Format: Paperback Pages: 236 List Price: £5.00 |
Synopsis:
Editorial Reviews Amazon.com Review There are some classic images in Yoga, the illusion of a rope as a snake, for instance, and the metaphor of the chariot as one's body. In addition to these tidbits, Georg Feuerstein offers readers a light, palatable smorgasbord of traditional Yoga teachings from the distant and not-so-distant past. Most are translated by Feuerstein himself and touch on such themes as liberation, meditation, the human body, bliss of the self, and service to others. It is easy to get bogged down in primary-source readers of this type, but Feuerstein's selections are short and easy to digest. If you think you might be hungry for more, Teachings of Yoga is an excellent jumping off point. Review "Georg Feuerstein has done us a great service in sifting through the yoga classics and putting together a volume of short pieces that are inspiring and clear even to readers just beginning their forays into yogic philosophy. Here are teachings from the Upanishads, Mirabi's love songs to Krishna, insights on attaining joy from the Mahabharata, and words of wisdom from masters like Ramana Maharshi, Gopi Krishna, Swami Vivekananda, and Gandhi. It is a wonderful introduction to a vastly rich tradition."-- Yoga Journal Buy from Amazon US Buy from Amazon UK |

Synopsis:
Editorial Reviews Product Description Live a life of peace, love, and happiness through spiritual awakening In Wake Up Now, author Stephan Bodian--nationally recognized expert on meditation and spirituality and former editor-in-chief of Yoga Journal--reveals that spiritual awakening is not some faraway dream, or overly complicated to achieve, but an ever-present reality that is always available here and now. Based on his own experience and over 30 years of teaching the direct approach to spiritual awakening, Bodian has broken down the awakening process into five overlapping, loosely sequential stages: seeking, awakening, deepening and clarifying, embodying, and living the awakened life. Wake Up Now guides you through every stage of the journey, from the process of seeking through the often prolonged and challenging process of integrating the awakening into everyday life. "This book is one of the most concise guides to spiritual awakening I have read. Both profound and practical, it guides the reader through the intricacies of awakening as only someone who has walked the walk themselves can do.

Synopsis:
Editorial Reviews Review [I]t states with clarity and precision what the beliefs and practices of yoga are, and how they originated from the primeval Indic religions. -- Review --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Product Description In this landmark book the renowned scholar of religion Mircea Eliade lays the groundwork for a Western understanding of Yoga, exploring how its guiding principle, that of freedom, involves remaining in the world without letting oneself be exhausted by such "conditionings" as time and history. Drawing on years of study and experience in India, Eliade provides a comprehensive survey of Yoga in theory and practice from its earliest foreshadowings in the Vedas through the twentieth century. The subjects discussed include Patañjali, author of the Yoga-sutras; yogic techniques, such as concentration "on a Single Point," postures, and respiratory discipline; and Yoga in relation to Brahmanism, Buddhism, Tantrism, Oriental alchemy, mystical erotism, and shamanism. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
